hi Henry

its hard to know what exactly is going on without seeing your composition and inspecting the elements inside

collapse transformation is maybe the most complex feature to predict in AE .

it really can change a lot of things since it affects all kinds of situations besides transformations ( making the comp bigger without losing quality).

what you should really do is change the size withing the current comp and not pre-compose it i.e not use the snowflake if it doesnt do the job.

one way of doing it is setting the comp to HD and attach everything to a null and resizing it.

another way is trying the built in script in after effects: file->scripts->scale composition.

see if that works for you.

Hi Everybody,

I have a :30 spot that has always been in standard def. Now, I need to make it into HD. There's a lot of type and Sure Target. After realizing that True Comp Duplicator doesn't work on this I decided to bring the SD comp into an HD comp, resized it to 1080 and turned on collapse transformations.

With the little snowflake turned on, the embedded comp doesn't advance thru time... it's "stuck" on the first frame. With the snowflake off, it plays fine but everything looks ratty.

Is this a bug, a feature or am I the first person ever to see this?
